A Family sIe ssing.

Simmsas Liver Regulator, the IaVorIIe home remedy, is entirely vegetable, and IS the purest and best family medicine that IS compounded. No error to be feared in ad- ministering; no injury from exposure atter taking; no loss of time. It is the best pre- vaatiye medicine and safe to take no mat ter what the sickness may prove to be, and' in any ordinary disease will effect speedy cure.
 Messrs. Willis and Whitfield invaded our sanctum last Saturday morning armed with a 45-pound watermelon. It was as tine melon as can be produced anywhere and our force, from devil to mailing clerk were in the third heaven so long as 1t lasted. The peculiar thing about this melon was that it was one of ten that grew on a two year-old vine. In the spring of 1886 Mir. Willis planted the seed which grew nicely but the bugs attacked the vines and he did not realize full crop. The vines were on the low, exposed lands below the old Quar- termasters depot near the river and were partially killed by the frost In the spring tender shoots were seen springing mp from the root of the old vine. Mir. Willis waited and watched. The result was astonishing and is but another exempli6cation of our wonderful soil and climate.
 Dr. Mills, of Los Angeles county, who visited Yuma last week in company with Robert McPhersou and who afterwards visited Phoenix for day or two, passed through Tuesday morning on his way home. He expressed himself as highly pleased with he location of Yuma, with the immense area of fertile land that surrounds it and the abundance of water which may be had for irrigation. He predicts a prosperous future for town and country.
 Mir. A. Frank returned Sunday from his visit to Silver District up the Colorado. He came down in a small boat accompanied by Wm. Brody. He says the glorious sunshine of our semi-tropic land is good, but did not contribute materially to the comfort of trip in small open craft.
 Physicians Have Found Out. That a contamiuating and foreign element developed by indigestion, is the cause of rheumatism. This settles upon the sensitive sub-cutaneous covering of the muscles and fragments of the joints, causing constant and shifting pain, and aggregating as calcare- GUS, chalky deposit which produces stiffness and distortion of the joints. No fact which . experience has demonstrated in regard to Hostetters Stomach Bitters has stronger ev- idence to support than this, namely, that this medicine of comprehensive uses checks the formidable and atrocious disease, nor is 1t less positively established that it it pref erable to the poisons often used to arrest it, since the medicine contains only salutary in gredients It is also sigual remedy for malarial levers. constipation, dyspepsia kid ney and bladder ailments, and other disorders.

Making TOYS in. France.

France has always been nearly self-sufficing
in the matter of toys. She makes her own
Polichinelle-a natter, dressier, more cox
combical Punch than our friend in Fleet
street; Punch whose hair is powdered and
who wears white kid gloves, but who is,
nevertheless, a most popular puppet. The
French @poupee" is at the acknowledged head
of the doll world. Not even the most fash
ionable London emporium can display dolls
equaling in pinkness of complexion, in round
ness of eye, in righteousness of tresses, in
wealth of lace and founces and frilleries, and
in radient sheen of bronze kid boots, the
dolls exhibited in Paris. {
In the manufacture of small porcelain dolls
arrayed as brides, babies, shepherdesses,
beadles and gendarmes, the French are also
wonderfully skillful, and they make nearly
all the toy poodles that bark and squeak, the
diminutive miniature accoutrements, the
hares that beat tabors, the ninepins, the bat
tledores and shuttlecocks, the tin tTumpets,
the jack-in .he-boxes, the "tombola" manda-
rims with tolling tongues, the wagons and
horses, the bagatelle boards, the tops, the
skipping ropes, the clockwork mice, the lili-
putian batteries de cuisine" and the models
Of grocers' and inendrapers' shops in which
young France takes delight.-London Tele-

Preparing Human Hair for Sale.

as not some preparation needed before the
hair is placed on the market for salel"
40, yes, of course. In Paris, where there
are several large hair dealers to whom the
peddlers sell their collections, the sorting,
cleaning and preparation of haar form an i'm
portant industry. You see, hair from all
parts of the world and of all shades, COM
plexions, lengths and previous conditions of
servitude are brought to these hair marts and
laid out. The women, whose powers of dis
tinguishing color are exceptionally acute, go
over them matching all the different colors
of the same texture, no matter where they
may have come from. These strands are also
matched as to length, until finally the hair is
divided up into lots of precisely the same
kind. Now, see here" he said, taking down
a tress from the window, "you might perhaps
suppose that all this was grown on one head.
That is nonsense. / would not be surprised,
If every hair could tell the story of its origin,
that we would find representatives from
every race On the globe. l see some Chinese
representatives here. You see Chinese hair
has been used to some extent. 1t is of course
very coarse and straight, but in Paris it is
split to a fine quality and subjected to
preparation to make it glossy. Then again
hair is dyed to certain specified shades. A
great portion of all the white hair, to tell
you professional secret, is manufactured by
bleaching But all of these preparations are
virtual failures, and nothing is SO good as the
genuine article free from preparation, al
though it is more costly."-San Francisco

Street Cars in Vienna.

First they cut the car up into two comrart-
ments, one for those who do and one for those
who do not smoke. Then the seats are put in
after a most charmingly original fashion,
with any number Of aisles, and finally the
conductor, who completes the outfit, is poem
all by himself. His uniform In point OF gor-
geousness and complexity, would serve as an
excellent model for country regiment of
militia And his state Of perfect content
ment is something cheerful to look upon. The
passengers who travel with him and from
whom he collects fares are all about his
equals, and while his politeness is complete
and exhaustive be is in his element and has
pleasant time. There is nearly always on
board some red checked young person in
clined to be sociable and merry when he
works his way to her end Of the car, and the
necessity of thinking every time of some
thing new and smart to say to her insures for
him that mental activity unknown to the
dispirited collector Of nickels There is miss
ing that outraged class of beings which in
America is forever taking somebody's num-
Der, and, in short, the life of a car conductor
in Vienna, while it may not be the most ex-
citing and satisfactory in the world, is GER
tainly not the dullest.
As in Paris, there is limit 10 the number
of persons admitted on board; but this can
not be said to be very harmful to the pecuni-
airy interests of the company, since the limit
is reached when every seat, every aisle and
both platforms are packed so full that if one
man during the journey were to swallow q
sandwich the sides of the car might burst
out. The fare varies according to the jour
ney which you have undertaken. The con-
ductor learns where you want to go, and sells
you tickets which range in price from ~ to
SO cents-Cor Baltimore American.

India as a Winter Resort.


India is rapidly becoming fashionable
winter resort for tourists. As the autumn
advances the Peninsular and Oriental COM
panys floating hotels take out heavy freights
of passengers, which include many persons
besides those who are merely returning to
their duties after leave of absence. No doubt
the trip is expensive, and it can not be really
appreciated unless the tourist is armed with
a good budget of letters of introduction But
to many its great attraction is that it has not
yet become vulgarized. The winter climate
is enjoyable; the official world welcomes
those whose social position in this country
renders letters of introduction unnecessary;
and even the ordinary tourist is appreciated
if he comes properly recommended. Posi-
bly,, the recent heavy fall in the value of the
rupee will cause the Anglo-Indian to think
twice before he indulges in lavish hospitality;
but this seems to have little effect on those
who wish to see how India is governed The
tourist trooping season has set in with excep-
tional severity this year, and before long we
shall be hearing that the excursion agents
have taken the matter in hand with view
to arranging cheap circular trips with fixed
charges for everything. James Gszetts.
